Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 2070 - 2070: Shou Mountain

The Seventh Elder was once again stunned; he only knew that the materials for the Xuanyuan Sword and the Minghong Knife came from Shou Mountain. In mythological legends, it is said that Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor led the gods to collect Shou Mountain Copper, which was then used to forge the Xuanyuan Sword and Minghong Knife. Of course, in the tales among Martial Artists, these gods naturally do not exist, but Shou Mountain Copper is a matter known to everyone.Yet, few people know what Shou Mountain actually is. No one knows where Shou Mountain is located. As for whether Shou Mountain floats in the air, that's even more unknown.

However, everyone knows that the Great Elder is well-read in various tomes, especially interested in Huaxia's books, having read many of them. Coming from his mouth, the credibility is very high. This suggests that Shou Mountain, just as the Great Elder says, might indeed be a mountain that can float in the air?

"A mountain floating in the air, according to physical common sense, is simply impossible." The Great Elder said, "But many texts have records of this; it can't be that those texts are wrong, right? So I began to speculate about the specific situation within. This Magnetic Metal is also something I've conjectured. Whether it's true or not is hard to say. Yet, this is the only explanation for why these items have no weight!"

As the Great Elder spoke, he grasped the Gold Silk Armor in his hand and gestured with a wave, "Alright, since it's confirmed to be genuine Gold Silk Armor, there's no need to worry about why it has no weight. Fifth Brother, what I asked you to prepare, is it ready?"

"It's ready, and the person has already been brought!" A ninja immediately replied.

"Very good!" The Great Elder nodded with satisfaction and then turned his gaze to Ye Jun and Wen'er, who were already in a state of unconsciousness aside, saying, "Wake her up first."

Immediately, a ninja walked over, tapped several acupoints on Wen'er's body, and Wen'er slowly woke up. Upon seeing the surroundings in the room, her expression changed instantly, and she said in a low voice, "You… you're the Iga-ryu ninjas!"

The South Ridge Sect has long been under the control of ninjas, and Wen'er had seen many ninjas before. Thus, observing the attire and aura of the people around her, she quickly identified their identity.

"Indeed, Miss Wen'er has sharp eyes!" The Great Elder chuckled while looking at Wen'er, acknowledging that this fellow's command of the Huaxia language was quite good. It seems his years of researching Huaxia's tomes were not in vain indeed.

"Where's my mother?" Wen'er asked loudly. Upon seeing these people, it was her first thought that they must be the ones who had kidnapped her mother. So she directly inquired about her mother.

"Hahaha…" The Great Elder laughed and addressed the people beside him, "See, didn't I say so? With Miss Wen'er's cleverness, surely she could instantly deduce the current situation."

"Enough with the nonsense, where is my mother!" Wen'er shouted loudly, while also glancing at Ye Jun, who remained unconscious, asking in a low voice, "What did you do to him?"

"We didn't do anything to him." The Great Elder replied with a smile, "Miss Wen'er, don't worry. We have a good relationship with your family, so we won't harm you. Come, let's not discuss other matters for now. Please tell us how to use the Gold Silk Armor."

"In your dreams!" Wen'er responded directly.

"Miss Wen'er, since you know your mother is with us, you should also understand that now everything is beyond your control!" The Great Elder slightly smiled, looking at Wen'er, whose face changed drastically, saying, "Don't worry, we certainly won't make things difficult for you. However, as for others, well..."

The Great Elder did not continue further, but the meaning was very clear. If you do not tell us, we indeed won't do anything to you, but as for Ye Jun and your mother, that's uncertain.

Upon hearing this, Wen'er was momentarily at a loss. If these people truly used her mother to threaten her, she honestly wouldn't know what to do.

"Is my mother truly in your hands?" Wen'er gritted her teeth, asking solemnly, "Bring my mother here to let me see first!"

"It's easy!" The Great Elder nodded with a faint smile, waving casually, and two people immediately went out. Shortly after, these two people assisted a ******** into the room. ******** had closed her eyes and seemed to be in a state of unconsciousness, bearing a slight resemblance to Wen'er.

Seeing this ********, Wen'er's complexion drastically changed, and she rushed forward exclaiming, "Mother!"

Just as Wen'er was about to dive toward the beautiful woman, someone beside her immediately blocked her path. The Great Elder chuckled indifferently and said, "Miss Wen'er, now that you've seen your mother, shouldn't you tell us how to use the Gold Silk Armor?"

Clenching her teeth tightly, Wen'er looked at her mother and asked, "What have you… done to my mother, why... why is she… like this..."

"Miss Wen'er, don't worry, we are all our people, and your mother surely won't be harmed." The Great Elder smiled and said, "As long as you reveal how to use the Gold Silk Armor, I assure you, your mother will wake up immediately!"

The underlying meaning was clearly informing Wen'er that if she doesn't disclose how to use the Gold Silk Armor, her mother may very well never wake up.

Wen'er glanced at her mother, then at the Great Elder, her teeth clenching tightly, yet she was utterly helpless. There were so many people around, any one of them could defeat her, and she had no strength to resist. Now, her mother and Ye Jun were here; their lives were in her hands, and how could Wen'er possibly keep the use of the Gold Silk Armor a secret?

"It's not impossible for me to reveal the use of the Gold Silk Armor..." Wen'er gritted her teeth as she looked at the Great Elder, speaking in a deep voice: "But how do I know that you won't actually spare us? If I divulge the use of the Gold Silk Armor and you go back on your word, won't we die with regrets?"

"Hahaha..." The Great Elder laughed heartily and said, "Miss Wen'er, I can swear to you. As long as you reveal the use of the Gold Silk Armor, I can guarantee the safety of all three of you!"

"Guarantee?" Wen'er snorted coldly, looked at the Great Elder, and spoke in a deep voice: "You all promised before that as long as we gathered one hundred and eight Famed Instruments, you would release my mother. And what happened? Your guarantees are as worthless as lies!"

Being insulted face-to-face like this by Wen'er, the surrounding Ninjas were a bit angry. Yet the Great Elder still wore a calm smile, looking at Wen'er he said, "Since you think our guarantees are useless, what would you want us to do for you to reveal the use of the Gold Silk Armor?"

Wen'er lowered her head in thought, suddenly pointed to Ye Jun beside her, and said, "Send him back to Shenchuan City first, and then I'll tell you the use of the Gold Silk Armor!"

This request greatly surprised the Great Elder. He looked at Wen'er and asked in wonder, "You want me to release him first? Shouldn't you ask me to release your mother first? Or is he more important in your heart than your mother?"

"This isn't about importance!" Wen'er spoke deeply: "Ye Qing handed the Gold Silk Armor and the method of using it to me just to save his brother. Now both the Gold Silk Armor and I have fallen into your hands; I accept this. But if even Ye Qing's brother cannot return, then even in death, I would feel sorry for Ye Qing. As for my mother and I, as long as we can reunite, even if we die together, it wouldn't matter!"

The Great Elder measured Wen'er up and down, nodded slowly, and said, "Alright, very good! I like your character. Then according to your word, I will send him to Shenchuan City. But you also have to keep your promise to tell me the use of the Gold Silk Armor!"

Wen'er looked at her unconscious mother beside her and smiled bitterly, "Can I not tell you?"

The Great Elder did not hesitate either, directly ordering someone to drag Ye Jun out. He looked at Wen'er and said, "This Ye Jun doesn't hold much value to me; sending him back is no big deal. The key thing is the use of the Gold Silk Armor; when are you planning to tell me?"

"Once I confirm Ye Jun's safety," Wen'er said in a deep voice.

"Alright!" The Great Lord nodded, standing up and said, "In three hours, you can confirm his safety. In these three hours, Miss Wen'er, please rest for a while!"

After the Great Elder finished speaking, he rose and left first. As soon as the Great Elder left, the two people directly helped Wen'er's mother to walk outside.

Seeing the situation like this, Wen'er was immediately anxious, quickly wanted to go and stop them, but was blocked.

"Where are you taking my mother!" Wen'er said anxiously.

"Don't worry, we won't make it difficult for her. Just, in her current condition, she is not suited to stay here." A Ninja came over and said, "Once you tell us the use of the Gold Silk Armor, you can always be with your mother. For now, Miss Wen'er, please go inside to rest for a while!"

Wen'er watched as the two took her mother away, but she couldn't stop them and could only turn angrily into the inner room.

Elsewhere, as soon as the Great Elder left the room, a few Ninjas came up to him, and one lightly said, "Great Elder, do you really want to send Ye Jun back to Shenchuan City? If Ye Jun returns to Shenchuan City, I fear it will attract Ye Qing's people. It will only become very troublesome then!"

"Great Elder, this Wen'er's words are completely untrustworthy!" Another Ninja said, "Even if we send Ye Jun back to Shenchuan City, I'm afraid Wen'er may not necessarily tell us the use of the Gold Silk Armor!"

"Great Elder, I think Ye Jun absolutely can't be sent back to Shenchuan City. Otherwise, if we attract Ye Qing, our plan will be ruined!" another person said.

Looking at the crowd, the Great Elder smiled slightly and said, "Do you really think that if we don't send Ye Jun back to Shenchuan City, Ye Qing won't find us?"

"Huh?" Everyone was surprised, looking at the Great Elder in bewilderment, not understanding the meaning of his words.

"Do you not understand yet?" The Great Elder smiled, "Ye Qing brought out the Gold Silk Armor and told Wen'er the method of using it, it is basically to draw us out. The real person orchestrating everything behind the scenes is still Ye Qing!"
